In terms of Indices/ETFs, STI is just not attractive compared to SPY. (STI grew 100% in the last 20 years while SPY grew 2000%.) So most who invest in SG tickers pretty much either hold DBS, UOB and OCBC and maybe the few growth tickers like iFAST. Think this would be a healthy mix of the 2, and even has some growth tickers in NASDAQ. Definitely worth considering.

I'm slightly bearish on the market for the next 6-9 months. Earnings quality will drop, though inflation will be peak off soon. Credit impulse has fallen sharply for the past few months. I'm thinking stocks will undergo a correction at least until September.
If cutting your position is not ideal, opt for selling covered calls or puts instead. Strangles may work as well, for those more familiar with options. All the best!
I learnt how to trade options on Twitter from some random twitter users. They taught me how to manage risk and develop my trading strategy and they host a weekly female traders only podcast every wednesday when market opens. Not everyone that inspires you has to be famous.

Depending on where you think the stock is headed, sell calls/puts with 30% probability of being in the money. Can collect about 3% premium per week, but depends on stock.
